Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

= DESCRIPTION:
Installs and configures MySQL client or server.
= REQUIREMENTS:
== Platform:
Best tested on Ubuntu 9.04,9.10. On EC2, requires platform that supports -o bind option for the 'mount' command.
== Cookbooks:
Requires Opscode's openssl cookbook for secure password generation.
= ATTRIBUTES:
* mysql[:server_root_password] - Set the server's root password with this, default is a randomly generated password with OpenSSL::Random.random_bytes.
* mysql[:server_repl_password] - Set the replication user 'repl' password with this, default is a randomly generated password with OpenSSL::Random.random_bytes.
* mysql[:server_debian_password] - Set the debian-sys-maint user password with this, default is a randomly generated password with OpenSSL::Random.random_bytes.
* mysql[:bind_address] - Listen address for MySQLd, default is node's ipaddress.
* mysql[:datadir] - Location for mysql data directory, default is "/var/lib/mysql"
* mysql[:ec2_path] - location of mysql datadir on EC2 nodes, default "/mnt/mysql"
Performance tuning attributes, each corresponds to the same-named parameter in my.cnf; default values listed
* mysql[:tunable][:key_buffer] = "250M"
* mysql[:tunable][:max_connections] = "800"
* mysql[:tunable][:wait_timeout] = "180"
* mysql[:tunable][:net_write_timeout] = "30"
* mysql[:tunable][:net_write_timeout] = "30"
* mysql[:tunable][:back_log] = "128"
* mysql[:tunable][:table_cache] = "128"
* mysql[:tunable][:max_heap_table_size] = "32M"
= USAGE:
On client nodes,
include_recipe "mysql::client"
As the common use case is on systems with Ruby, we also install the MySQL RubyGem. Because we may want to be able to use the gem within another Chef recipe, we make sure the mysql development package and gem are installed first. The key is this:
r = package ... do
action :nothing
end
r.run_action(:install)
This creates a resource object for the package and does the installation before other recipes are parsed. You'll need to have the C compiler and such (ie, build-essential on Ubuntu) before running the recipes, but we already do that when installing Chef :-). If you want to be able to access a MySQL database via Ruby within another recipe, you could do so, like so:
Gem.clear_paths # needed for Chef to find the gem...
require 'mysql' # requires the mysql gem
execute "create #{node[:railsapp][:db][:database]} database" do
command "/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p#{node[:mysql][:server_root_password]} create #{node[:railsapp][:db][:database]}"
not_if do
m = Mysql.new("localhost", "root", @node[:mysql][:server_root_password])
m.list_dbs.include?(@node[:railsapp][:db][:database])
end
end
On server nodes,
include_recipe "mysql::server"
On Debian/Ubuntu this will preseed the MySQL package with the randomly generated root password. You can of course change the password afterward, but this makes sure that there's a good password set. You can view it in the node data in the Chef Server webui. Sets a new password for debian-sys-maint user as well.
Also sets up 'repl' user grants for replication slaves.
On EC2 nodes,
include_recipe "mysql::server_ec2"
When the ec2_path doesn't exist we look for a mounted filesystem (eg, EBS) and move the datadir there.
The client recipe is already included by server and 'default' recipes.
